Wednesday Night Fun

Here's some happy faces from our Wednesday nights!

Church Family

I want to say "Thank you" to Dianne White and all the beautiful ladies that celebrated with me Monday night. It was a really fun surprise! I was humbled and encouraged by the show of love and friendship. We need each other! I need you! To me, what happened Monday night is the church family in action as it should be: rejoicing with those who rejoice, weeping with those who weep. That way, we won't feel alone in our circumstances, but will walk confidently, arm in arm. I want to do that for my church family, too.

So thank you, New Life ladies (including those who couldn't come). I love you! In Christ, Mimi

Cancer Free!

A group gathered to celebrate with and surprise Mimi Klotz who has officially been cancer free after battling breast cancer five years ago. Praise God! Sylvia Hunter and Edna Renner are also cancer survivors, so we had much to celebrate.

Home Groups Have Begun!

The New Life home groups had their first meetings yesterday and all are still welcome to join! For more information, check out the small group blog.

Baby Shower for Sarah

Sarah and Brian Leroy are expecting their first baby this fall, October 12th is the due date. They're expecting a little boy! Some of the New Life women gathered to shower her with some baby goodies. Please keep Brian and Sarah in your prayers with this exciting new stage of life ahead!

Breakfast Tailgate Party

The Children's ministry (Kid's City) team gathered for a breakfast tailgate party this morning. Most came in their blue and white, with the exception of a few rebels.

Miracle Watch

One of the two adult classes being offered on Wednesday evenings is taking a look at some of the miracles of Jesus. The group was challenged by Andy Denniston to be on "Miracle Watch" throughout the next few weeks and to report what they find. Tonight, Jim and Nancy Dalton brought in these gorgeous flowers from their garden. They are indeed a perfect example of one of God's many miracles, and as Jim noted, some of them start as a seed smaller than a grain of salt. He said sometimes seeds similar to these will lie dormant in a dessert region for more than 100 years. When the right amount of rain falls, the dessert becomes covered with beautiful blooms such as these. Miraculous!

Praise God for his miracles all around us, and join us in watching Him work.
